    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • During the programme, we had the opportunity to experience the working environment by spending time shadowing junior bankers, as well as taking part in informative skills sessions, listening to presentations and networking with bankers of all levels. We also had a tour of the historical archives to understand the business model of the company. Finally, we had a M&A case study during the week to build our skills.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • Very exciting! The Global Advisory team, which I'm interested in, is a stimulating and "people" division and I'm truly looking forward to continuing my career here. There are tons of different roles available, and despite being a competitive industry, once you are hired by the company you get the chance to discover many things and to be at the forefront by advising leaders in the current business world. Another point I would like to highlight is that the more you are willing to work and learn, the more people will trust you and give you opportunities to develop your skills, which is a very important aspect especially in the first years of your career.
